Excerpt from a 2011 Interview:
"It's really hard not to paint illegally and that gives me mad energy for canvases. Thanks to this situation I have two open cases and I can't do any graffiti, not in the US anyways. They want to give me probation but it's a classic game: they offer you the probation as a set up, to catch you on some bullshit or hit you with charges while you're on probation; and then you do real time, it's a commonly used set up, and they get a lot of people that way.
I'm trying to tell these people, "what is your problem with me????" I'm retired, I don't do graffiti anymore, I do gallery art for a living, I'm a family man now, I don't do anything illegal anymore, I'm trying to raise my family and get on with my career and the vandal squad has a harsh, vicious vendetta against me. The district attorney has elevated it to two supreme court cases since I wont roll on other artists, the DA offered to drop all charges if I implicate the others, but I was never about rolling on my friends..."
